TUESDAY, JUNE 7, 2011 www.mydailysentinel.com Proposed election reform could change absentee voting period BY BRIAN J. REED BREED@MYDAILYSENTINEL.COM POMEROY — Limits on the window for casting an absentee ballot are included in the elections reform legislation Ohio Secretary of State Jon Husted has proposed. In his “Ready 2012 and Beyond” reform program, Husted proposes changing the schedule for casting absentees, the casting and counting of provisional ballots, and stan- dardizing some practices among local boards of elections. “The 2012 presidential election will have a tremendous impact on our state and nation,” Husted said. “My goal is to ensure that the focus is on candidates, not on the process of electing them. There are changes we can make to improve overall access and accuracy and thereby build more confidence in the results.” Under current condi- tions, different counties have different standards for administering early voting, and Husted is proposing statewide standards to govern the process, he said. He would set the window for absentee voting at 21 days by mail and 16 days in person prior to Election Day. “Because the deadline for voter registration would remain at 30 days before the election, the new timeframe would effectively eliminate the so-called ‘golden week’ where voters have been able to register and vote on the same day and bypass safeguards in the system,” Husted said, noting his proposal would not change the voting period for military voters, which would remain 45 days. Husted is calling for online voter registration and affording the opportunity to change voter addresses electronically, to assist Festival a ‘Great Success’ BY CHARLENE HOEFLICH voters and boards and potentially reduce errors. According to an informal survey of Ohio’s 88 boards, nearly half of the provisional ballots cast in the last general election were due to the fact that voters moved or changed their name and did not notify the elections board.

That stopped everything – the music, the motorcycle light parade, the vendors’ sales – and everyone went home.” Despite that, however, Quickel described the 9th annual event “a real success.” Many more bikes from across Ohio and West Virginia, and as far away as Maryland, came in and the crowds were bigger this year than last, he said. Capturing the plaque for Ohio’s Best Wings was J. T.’s Stovetop Barbecue Co. of West Union, who has been a festival vendor for all nine years and winner of the top award for three years. The plaque for Ohio’s Best Ribs went to Adam Williams of Middleport who also won last year’s title. The POMEROY – On Saturday, June 18 from 9 a.m. to noon, residents across the region will come together for the annual Ohio River Sweep. It’s a time of removing tons of trash from waterways and then seeing to it that it all of it is properly disposed of. This year the Meigs SWCD, OSU Extension Office, and the Leading Creek Watershed Group are sponsoring three locations for Ohio River Sweep. Many of the supplies needed to carry out the work have been donated by local merchants. In Pomeroy at 9 a.m. on June 18 volunteers will meet at the riverfront amphitheater stage in the parking lot. At Racine volunteers will meet at the Star Mill Park at 9 a.m., and at Syracuse volunteers will gather at the shelter house by the ball field at 9 a.m. Gloves and trash bags will be provided to the volunteers, who will also get free t-shirts and refreshments after the event ends at noon. “This is a great event for families, scout groups, 4-H clubs, and all concerned citizens,” said a Meigs Soil and Water Conservation District spokesperson. She said to pre-register just contact the Meigs SWCD at 740992-4282. It was noted that this year arrangements have been made to make it easier for trash to be recycled. At each location there will be traditional recycling bins set up and also an electronics waste collection bin. All electronic items with the exception of televisions can be accepted. On that Saturday from 9 a.m. to noon, area residents can bring electronic items they wish to dispose of to any of three River Sweep locations, but are reminded that no television sets can be accepted. Since 1989, this awardwinning cleanup for the Ohio River and its tributaries brings thousands of volunteers to the riverbanks to collect tons of trash and debris. River Sweep encompasses the entire length of the river, from its origin in Pittsburgh, Pa. to its end in Cairo, IL, including 1,962 miles of shoreline and many tributaries. Each year, more than 21,000 volunteers from public organizations, civic groups, recreational clubs, and the general public in six states bordering the river come together to col- See Festival, A5 Additional photos on page A2 Beautiful bikes from as far away as Maryland lined the stone wall of Pomeroyʼs parkingʼs lot. 4-H members did face painting as a part of their creative arts program for the GW&R festival.

Despite spring rains, local produce will be ready BY BETH SERGENT BSERGENT@MYDAILYSENTINEL.COM GREAT BEND — Despite heavy spring rains, locally-grown produce in Meigs County, which is a big part of the local economy, will be ready for market, according to The Ohio State University Extension Agent/Educator, Hal Kneen. Kneen met with local growers in Meigs County last week and reported the popular “Meigs County tomatoes” were the size of silver dollars with some already needing a second trellising. Kneen added the rain did cause some delays, adding local farmers could be competing with more northern markets depending on when the produce comes to market and if it comes on at the same time. Normally, local farmers have a three-four week window of time where their produce is dominating in northern markets due to being able to plant earlier - this year, it looks like that window of time will be around two weeks, Kneen guessed. “It’s been a challenge but that’s what farming is about, challenges,” Kneen said about the soggy weather this spring and having a backup plan to keep the crops growing. Those crops are growing which is the important, relevant fact for farmers and consumers alike. Though rain dominated the weather for most of the spring, recent dry temperatures have caused farmers to irrigate their fields - fields which have sandy soil as opposed to clay soil. Recent temperatures in the 80-90 degree range have been ideal for growing the tomatoes, many of which are shipped to larger markets like Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Columbus, etc. Local growers have also been hitting markets closer to home like Athens, Marietta, Gallipolis and Point Pleasant, W.Va., all of which have farmers markets. Kneen said local farmers beat the soggy spring by having well organized, managed fields and during the few, good, dry days the area experienced this spring, those farmers were able to get those fields planted. Corn, which was started under clear plastic at the end of April in the county, should be ready by mid-June for commercial growers. Pepper planting is also finishing up in many local fields, though may be slightly delayed in harvesting. Kneen said there are between 20-30 commercial growers in Meigs County, many in Racine, Letart Falls, Long Bottom, Great Bend, Reedsville, etc. Old challenges facing farmers are managing the new costs of fertilizer, labor and gasoline as well as a new insect to worry about - the brown marmorated stink bug. This bug, which was introduced to this country 10 years ago from Asia, has taken over the east coast and last year there were outbreaks in Middleport. This insect likes to pierce fruit, causing discoloration and makes for a poor looking plant. Kneen said currently there is a five-state monitoring project of the pest going on and though there are insecticides to keep these bugs at bay, these same insecticides kill the beneficial insects which live in the garden as well. As for the backyard gardeners in Meigs County, Kneen said it hasn’t been an easy planting season, especially for those with clay soil. “The traditional home garden is definitely going to be later this year,” Kneen said due to the rain but added this means a possible opportunity for a better fall when gardeners can plant cold weather plants missed in the spring, such as peas, radishes, etc. See Sweep, A5 �Tuesday, June 7, 2011 www.mydailysentinel.com The Daily Sentinel • Page A2 F ESTIVAL F UN Charlene Hoeflich, photos Pet rock painting in the Court Street mini-park was a popular craft for youngsters at the Gold Wings and Ribs Festival.

B RO T H E R S Allaying sonʼs fear of school following shooting Dear Dr. Brothers: After a recent school shooting that was in the news, my son is scared of going to school. He’s old enough to understand what happens in these terrible events, and he thinks his school is dangerous even though it’s instituted a lot of safety measures for students throughout the years. I’ve tried giving him time to get over the fear, but I think I need to do a better job of explaining that he’s not in danger. How can I convince him that he shouldn’t be scared of school shootings? — F.J. Dear F.J.: With all the violence that is continually present in the news, it can be hard to control what your kids are exposed to. While your son may be bound to find out the gory details sooner or later from the TV news or the Internet, the extent to which you can put these details in context and allow him to deal with his fears and worries naturally all depends on how you handle the situation. It’s completely normal for your son to internalize and transform this type of school shooting event into something that could become very real for him in his own life, especially since in a lot of cases the children involved are so young. There are two main things you can do to help your son get over his fears. The first is simply to listen and let him talk about what he fears. Sometimes just talking about these types of issues can make kids feel a lot better, especially if they feel their concerns are truly being heard. The second thing you can do Dr. Joyce Brothers is reassure your son with specific examples of how his school is protected. He seems old enough to understand how things like teaching conflict resolution or dealing with bullying can make schools safer, so investigate specific changes your son’s school has made and let him know what they are. And in the end, if he’s still scared to go to school, there may be other underlying issues, and you might need to seek professional help. Dear Dr. Brothers: My two girls both play softball and soccer, but when I’ve been at practices and games, I feel like they don’t get a lot of playing time and they’re often overlooked by their coaches. Neither of them is the best on her team, but they’re not even in high school yet, and I think the focus should still be on team-building and letting everyone have a chance, rather than solely on winning. What can I do to make sure my girls aren’t getting shortchanged in these sports? — H.D. Dear H.D.: There’s a complicated trade-off to being a parent of kids who participate in sports. On the one hand, you want them to succeed by becoming better players and helping their team to win; on the other hand, you also want to allow them to learn teamwork and sportsmanship, and how to deal with competition. It’s hard, as an adult, to see these sports teams as our children see them, and truly understand the dynamics of practices and games — but this goes for adult coaches as well as parents. The first thing you should do is talk to your daughters and get a feel for whether they share your idea that they’re getting the short end of the stick when it comes to their sports. If your kids don’t think it’s a problem, then you can — and should — drop the matter then and there. But if your daughters are feeling slighted by the coach, encourage them to say something before you intervene. It may just be a matter of them needing to speak up and request a desired position in order for them to feel more appreciated by the team. If this doesn’t work, you can try talking to the coach in a civil and respectful manner — and try to have this conversation away from the playing field and the kids. You can explain that your kids are feeling overlooked, and ask if there’s anything they can do — maybe an extra game of catch in the backyard or some shooting practice — to earn more playing time. If the coach is still unresponsive, you can always find a new league!

Then there’s the 2011 recovery. The U.S. economy is moving ahead, however fitfully. Yet state and local governments are still stuck in recession. Short of cash, they cut 30,000 jobs in May, the seventh straight month they’ve shed workers. Rather than add to U.S. economic growth, they’re subtracting from it. And ordinary Americans are feeling it — from reduced services to fewer teachers, police officers and firefighters. The Great Recession officially ended two years ago this month. By the same point during previous recoveries, state and local governments were engines of growth: In the two years after the 1990-91 recession ended, for example, they’d added 430,000 jobs. At the same point after the 2001 recession ended, they had added 249,000. This time is different. More than 467,000 state and local government jobs have vanished since the recession officially ended in June 2009, including 188,000 in schools. Few see the pain subsiding soon. Mark Vitner, senior economist at Wells Fargo Securities, expects state and local governments to slash 20,000 to 30,000 jobs a month through the middle of 2012. Joel Naroff of Naroff Economic Advisors notes that when states cut spending to balance their budgets, as required annually, a ripple effect multiplies the damage: Companies that do business with states and localities suffer. These companies, in turn, scale back their own hiring. “There’s a whole slew of private companies that have to cut back when they don’t get the (government) contracts they had been getting,” Naroff said. “You can’t balance a budget and say everything’s going to be beautiful.” Moody’s Analytics estimates that each job in state and local government supports an additional 1.3 jobs elsewhere in the economy. Zanesville, Ohio, just cut nearly 50 jobs from its schools, mostly through layoffs. “People have to realize: There’s just so much money, we have to watch every dime that we spend.” says school Superintendent. The cutbacks stretch across the country: — Monticello, Ga., has cut its police force in half — to five. It had planned to eliminate the force entirely until it found the money to keep some officers, says Police Chief Bobby Norris. — Zanesville, Ohio, just cut nearly 50 jobs from its schools, mostly through layoffs. “People have to realize: There’s just so much money,” says school Superintendent Terry Martin, who had to close a $7.2 million budget gap through 2016. “We have to watch every dime that we spend.” — In Alameda, Calif., police and firefighters last week couldn’t save a drowning man in the San Francisco Bay because the fire department had cut funding for water rescue training, wet suits and other equipment. The Great Recession of 2007-2009, the longest and deepest downturn since the 1930s, dried up state and local tax revenue. It also escalated demands for social programs like Medicaid and unemployment benefits and “ate through their rainy-day funds,” notes Michael Gapen, senior U.S. econo- The Daily Sentinel Reader Services (USPS 213-960) Correction Policy Ohio Valley Publishing Co.

For a while, federal stimulus spending cushioned the blow to state and local finances. But that money is running out. And it probably won’t be replenished. The federal government is preparing to cut its own spending to shrink huge budget deficits. States like Wisconsin, New Jersey and Ohio have first-term governors who “are trying to make their names by cutting spending,” Naroff says. “It wasn’t the ‘in thing’ before to become a governor and immediately slash and burn. Now, you’ve got economic and political realities that are different from any time before.” Analysts hold out hope that state governments might be on the verge of a rebound. State tax revenue is forecast to rise 2.1 percent in the fiscal year that starts July 1, according to a report last week from the National Governors Association and the National Association of State Budget Officers. But 29 states say they’ll still spend less in the 2012 fiscal year than in 2008. And local governments are still waiting for a recovery in tax revenue. They rely heavily on property tax revenue, which continues to sink with the collapse in home prices in many areas. “The state revenues are coming back, but the local revenues probably haven’t seen the worst of it,” says Christopher Hoene, director of research at the National League of Cities. “We still have another year to go for sure.” Steven Leslie, financial services analyst for the Economist Intelligence Unit, a research firm, predicts that tight government spending at the local, state and federal levels will persist during a prolonged period of slow growth. “If I were going to tell college graduates what careers to follow,” he says, “I wouldn’t recommend public service.” While most in the United States were recognizing Memorial Day with a three-day weekend, the people of Honduras were engaged in a historic event: the return of President Manuel Zelaya, 23 months after being forced into exile at gunpoint in the first coup in Central America in a quarter-century. While he is no longer president, his peaceful return marks a resounding success for the opponents of the coup. Despite this, the post-coup government in Honduras, under President Porfirio “Pepe” Lobo, is becoming increasingly repressive, and is the subject this week of a letter to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, signed by 87 members of the U.S. Congress, calling for suspension of aid to the Honduran military and police. As the only U.S. journalist on Zelaya’s flight home, I asked him how he felt about his imminent return. “Full of hope and optimism,” he said. “Political action is possible instead of armaments. No to violence. No to military coups. Coups never more.” When Zelaya landed in Honduras, he kneeled down and kissed the ground. He was greeted by tens of thousands of people cheering and waving the black-and-red flag of the movement born after the coup, the FNRP, or National Front of Popular Resistance, “the resistance” that Zelaya now leads. His first stop: a massive rally at the memorial for 19-year-old Isis Obed Murillo, who was killed one week after the 2009 coup when Zelaya first attempted to fly back into the country.

At least 12 journalists have been killed there since the coup, according to the Committee to Protect Journalists. Scores of campesinos -- small farmers -- have been killed. High-school students protesting teacher layoffs and the privatization of education were violently attacked by police this week, with tear gas and live ammunition. At the rally, Zelaya, memorializing Murillo, said, “Blood was not shed in vain, because we’re still standing ... resistance is today the cry of victory.” The current Honduran government agreed to allow Zelaya’s return to gain readmission into the Organization of American States in an attempt to shed Honduras’ pariah status in Latin America for the coup. Pariah to Latin America, but not the United States. Even though President Barack Obama early on called Zelaya’s ouster “a coup,” the U.S. government soon dropped the term. But there is no other word for it. On Sunday, I spoke with Zelaya in his home. He recounted what happened. It was around 5 a.m. on June 28, 2009, when black-hooded Honduran soldiers stormed his house after shooting through the back door. “They threatened me, that they were going to shoot,” he said. “And I said to them: ‘If you have orders to shoot, then shoot me. But know that you are shooting the president of the republic.’ ... They forced me to go to their vehicles outside with my pajamas on. We landed in the U.S. military base of Palmerola. ... And then to Costa Rica.” Ultimately, more important to Honduras is not just the return of Zelaya, but the return of democracy. Zelaya was gaining popular support for policies like a 60 percent increase in the minimum wage, the plan to take over the U.S. Palmerola air base and use it as the civilian airport in place of the notoriously dangerous Toncontin International Airport, plans to distribute land to peasant farmers, and to join ALBA, the regional cooperative bloc developed to diminish the economic domination of the United States. On the day he was deposed, Zelaya was holding a nonbinding straw poll to assess if the population wanted to hold a national constituent assembly to evaluate possible changes to the constitution. That, he explains, is why he was deposed. Secretary of State Clinton and close friend Lanny Davis, who is working as a powerful lobbyist for the coup regime, have pushed hard for the legitimization of the current Lobo government, despite Clinton’s own State Department cable titled “Open and Shut: The Case of the Honduran Coup,” released by WikiLeaks, that the coup was clearly illegal. As I headed to the airport to leave Honduras after this historic weekend, I passed a group of teachers, one month into their hunger strike outside the Honduran Congress. They, like a broad network of civil society groups in Honduras, while celebrating the return of their ousted president, are clear in their demand, now joined by 87 members of the U.S. Congress, for an end to violence and repression in Honduras.

Trial opens for Cleveland man accused in 11 deaths BY MEGHAN BARR ASSOCIATED PRESS CLEVELAND (AP) — The bodies were removed many months ago, but the stench of them still clings to the boarded-up house on Imperial Avenue. The smell surfaces every so often: a reminder of the horrors that unfolded here in November 2009, when police began pulling the remains of 11 women from the depths of this rundown white duplex on an impoverished Cleveland street. “Every once in a while you can hear people saying ... ‘What’s that smell?,’” says Tracy Chapman, who lives across the street. The murder trial gets under way Monday for Anthony Sowell, 51, a convicted sex offender and ex-Marine charged with killing the women and hiding their remains in his home and backyard. The trial, expected to last several weeks, will force Cleveland residents to revisit a dark chapter in the city’s history that most would rather forget. Prosecutors say Sowell, who has pleaded not guilty, lured women from the neighborhood into his home with the promise of alcohol or drugs, then killed them. In a surprise secret meeting Friday, prospective jurors were introduced to Sowell behind closed doors while reporters covering the case waited on another floor for trial credentials. Cuyahoga County Common Pleas Judge Dick Ambrose had previously said jury selection would begin Monday in his courtroom. The discovery of the bodies ignited an uproar that has yet to subside, with most of the anger directed at the city’s police department. Some of the victims’ families allege the police never bothered to look for their loved ones because they were addicted to drugs and lived in a dangerous part of town, near Sowell’s home. All of the victims were black. Most were strangled with household objects and had traces of drugs in their systems. Residents of Mount Pleasant, Sowell’s neighborhood, had complained about a rotting smell for months, but they say their complaints went unheeded. The women disappeared one by one, starting in October 2007. The last one vanished in September 2009. They were disposed of in garbage bags and plastic sheets, then dumped in various parts of the house and yard. Five were buried in the backyard; four ended up on the third floor. One woman’s body, found in the basement under a mound of dirt, was nude and gagged at the mouth. All that remained of Leshanda Long, 25, was her skull, found in a bucket in the basement. Michelle Mason, 44, was strangled with a cloth and buried in the backyard. Her mother, Adlean Atterberry, chose to re-bury her in a cemetery within walking distance of her home because she could not bear to be far from her daughter. She visits the grave almost daily. It was a relief when Mason’s body was identified because it put an end to the lurking fear that she was locked in a basement somewhere, suffering. Atterberry is convinced that her daughter was killed quickly — that she could not have remained in that house for long. "He killed her right there,” she says. “He couldn’t have kept her in that house because she’d have been screaming like somebody — she had the loudest voice you ever heard. She would’ve been screaming. Somebody would’ve heard her.” The public outcry picked up steam when it emerged that Sowell had been arrested in 2008 when a woman accused him of attacking her, only to be released shortly afterward because police didn’t believe the woman was credible. Several families are suing the city in a slew of lawsuits alleging wrongful death, negligence and racial discrimination. Yet the effects of the crimes were felt all the way up the political food chain, as high up as the mayor’s office. In a strange twist, a local TV station reported that Mayor Frank Jackson’s niece had dated Sowell and lived with him several years ago. His niece has declined interview requests, and Jackson has been tight-lipped about the connection. The mayor, his wife and his niece are on the list of witnesses who will be called to testify. Andrea Taylor, the mayor’s spokeswoman, said the mayor does not know why he’s on the list. Taylor said she did not want to speculate but acknowledged the connection between Sowell and Jackson’s niece. It has been a long road getting to the start of the trial, which was supposed to start a year ago and was delayed several times. The defense has claimed “inflammatory, saturating and prejudicial” news coverage makes it impossible for Sowell to get a fair trial in Cleveland, but the judge refused to move it. Two judges were forced to step aside before Cuyahoga County Common Pleas Judge Dick Ambrose finally took over. The first judge stepped down after The Plain Dealer, Cleveland’s daily newspaper, published e-mails in which the judge criticized law enforcement’s practice of releasing suspects pending indictment — which is what happened in Sowell’s case in 2008. The second judge, Shirley Strickland Saffold, was removed by the Ohio Supreme Court to “avoid the appearance of bias” after The Plain Dealer reported that inflammatory anonymous comments posted on the newspaper’s website about Sowell and one of his attorneys had been traced to Saffold’s personal email account. Last week, Ambrose denied a last-ditch attempt to delay the trial one more time. Jury selection is expected to last two weeks. who may have already voted absentee or in another precinct. Ninety percent of the 105,000 provisional ballots were counted statewide in the November, 2010 election. Nearly half of the 10 percent uncounted were not counted because they were from ineligible Ohio voters. “While recognizing there will always be a need for provisional ballots and in high-turnout elections, the provisional ballot count will inevitably increase. Husted wants to deploy new technology that could help voters get to the correct precinct, and wants the authority to certify electronic poll books, which will allow poll workers to access county-wide voter information rather than paper books. Husted is seeking authority to enhance and develop a more centralized Statewide Voter Database to easily access voter information files against other state databases. “A well-run system of elections requires the right balance between access and accuracy,” Husted said, “but no law change can ever replace the important factor in making elections run smoothly - the responsibility of voters to do their part.” That responsibility, he said, includes registering to vote 30 days prior to the election and keeping information current, knowing polling place and precinct, and remembering to bring identification to the polls.

Opening statements begin in Baseline Killer trial PHOENIX (AP) — Opening statements are under way in the trial of a man accused of killing nine people and committing dozens of other crimes, including rape and child molestation, in the Baseline Killer case in Phoenix. Maricopa County prosecutor Suzanne Cohen told the jury Monday that defendant Mark Goudeau was driven by a hunger to rape, and the victims who didn’t cooperate were shot point-blank in the head. Goudeau has pleaded not guilty. The 46-year-old Goudeau sat quietly in the courtroom in a suit and tie, listening closely as the 74 charges were read and opening statements began. The trial is expected to last nine months.

The NBA finals were up for grabs and he was determined to seize control. Wade began setting the tone in practice the day before Game 3 and never let up. Soaring to the rim, chasing every loose ball and demanding the best from his teammates, Wade guided the Miami Heat to an 8886 victory over the Dallas Mavericks on Sunday night that puts them two wins from the championship. Game 4 is Tuesday. “(I) took it upon myself as a leader to try to lead my guys by example,” he said. “I was very aggressive going to the hole practicing. My teammates seen it. They can tell that I wanted this game, and I came in with the same mentality today.” Wade led Miami with 29 points and 11 rebounds, yet there was so much more to his performance. There were timely shots, such as scoring seven of Miami’s final nine points, and smart plays on defense, such as flustering Dirk Nowitzki into passing instead of taking a potential goahead shot in the final half-minute. The 2006 finals MVP also dished out harsh words and uplifting ones for LeBron James, Chris Bosh and anyone else he thought needed them. Regardless of what Wade specifically said, his teammates fed off the passion and intensity behind them. “At this point there’s no room to hold anything back,” James said. “As a competitor, you love when guys challenge you. He challenged me in the locker room at halftime. He challenged me on the court. ... I respect that.” Miami was coming off a devastating loss in Game 2, having blown a 15-point lead in the fourth quarter. The Heat again made things tough on their fans, letting a 14-point lead slip away then almost coughing up an 81-74 lead with 6:31 left. Dirk Nowitzki, who scored the final nine points in Dallas’ winning rally in Miami on Thursday night, topped himself by scoring 12 straight points down the stretch — six free throws, a layup, a dunk and a tough jumper that tied it at 86. But on the Mavericks’ final two possessions, Nowitzki threw a pass out of bounds and missed off the back iron as time ran out. Bosh hit the winning shot with 39.6 seconds left, and Udonis Haslem provided terrific defense on Nowitzki on those final two tries as the Heat regained homecourt advantage. Recent NBA finals history adds to the importance of this win: the Game 3 winner in a tied series has won the championship all 11 times since the 2-3-2 format began in 1985. Thus, Miami will head into Game 4 on Tuesday night with a chance to win it all on Dallas’ floor; the Heat must win that game and the next, on Thursday night. “If anyone can do it, I believe we can,” Wade said. The Mavericks were looking to build off their big comeback win, especially back at home in front of a loud crowd all decked out in blue Tshirts that read, “The Time Is Now.” But they played sloppy most of the night, such as giving up 14 turnovers that turned into 19 Miami points. And there was little help for Nowitzki. He scored 34 points, the same as Dallas’ next three best scorers combined. That trio — Jason Terry (15 points), Shawn Marion (10) and Jason Kidd (nine) — didn’t have a single point in the fourth quarter. Terry missed four shots, Kidd two and Marion didn’t even take any. Nowitzki wound up scoring 15 of the Mavericks’ 22 points in the fourth quarter. For the game, he made 11 baskets and his teammates made a total of 17. “We have to have somebody step up besides Dirk,” said Kidd, who had 10 assists, but also four turnovers. “We have to figure out how to get up front and play up front. The big thing is we’ve got to be able to make plays late in the game. Game 2 we made the plays, Game 3 we just didn’t.” Dallas was without backup center Brendan Haywood because of a hip injury. His absence meant more minutes for several frontcourt players, and it put Ian Mahinmi on the court for 8 minutes. He scored two points and committed five fouls. The winning basket started with the ball in Wade’s hands. He passed to James near the top of the key while Haslem screened Nowitzki. That let Bosh get set 16 feet from the basket on the left baseline. He took the pass from James and swished it, quite a thrill for the Dallas native who’d been 0-8 in his hometown. It was even more impressive considering his left eyelid was swollen because of an accidental poke by Kidd in the first quarter, and he’d been misfiring all series, even when his vision was good. “I don’t care if he missed 15 in a row,” James said. “He was wide open and that’s his sweet spot. ... It’s the trust we have in each other’s ability, no matter what the point of the game is at.” On Dallas’ next possession, Nowitzki wanted to take a shot near the foul line but had Haslem swarming him and Wade charging at him. He jumped to shoot but twisted and threw toward Marion near the 3-point line on the right side. Marion had already taken off toward the basket, so the ball went into the front row instead. After James missed a 3, Dallas had 4.4 seconds left to go for the tie or win. The inbounds pass went to Nowitzki and he was alone against Haslem just above the foul line. Haslem anticipated what Nowitzki was going to do and walked the fine line between disrupting the shot while avoiding a foul. “He’s a great player, 7 feet, so he’s going to shoot over me,” Haslem said. “I’ve got to make it Paul Moseley/Fort Worth Star-Telegram/MCT Miami Heat guard Dwyane Wade (3) scores past Dallas Mavericks forward Dirk Nowitzki (41) in Game 3 of the NBA Finals at American Airlines Center Sunday in Dallas, Texas. The Miami Heat defeated the Dallas Mavericks, 88-86. tough on him.” When the buzzer went off, Haslem swung his arms and screamed in delight while a frenzied crowd of 20,340 sighed in agony. “Emotional game, fought back, and to fall short at the end is tough,” Nowitzki said. “But they need two more. Hopefully we can play a better all-around game and finally get some shots to go down.” Wade and Bosh each scored seven points in the fourth quarter. Bosh finished with 18 points. James came in talking about being more aggressive, but wasn’t. He went more than 6 minutes before taking his first shot, but certainly made it worth the wait — a drive through the teeth of the defense for a powerful dunk. He also had a two-handed jam in the second half that put Miami up by 13. He finished with 17 points and nine assists. He also had four turnovers, including a pair during the fourth quarter. Mario Chalmers scored 12, including a 36-footer to beat the buzzer at the end of the first quarter.

Gallia Academy, Lady Raiders score at D-2 state meet BY BRYAN WALTERS BWALTERS@MYDAILYTRIBUNE.COM COLUMBUS, Ohio — Two streaks continued. Another one fell by the wayside. All in all, it was another great season for Gallia County track. Both girls programs at Gallia Academy and River Valley scored a point at the state level for a second straight year, while the GAHS boys posted its first points at state since 2008 this past weekend at the 2011 Division II OHSAA Track and Field Championships held at Jesse Owens Memorial Stadium on the campus of the Ohio State University. The big winner from the weekend came in D-2 boys, as the Blue Devils scored five points as a team after placing the fourth in the 4x400m relay event — the final race in the D-2 meet. The quartet of Jonathan Caldwell, Ethan Moore, Tyler Campbell and Austin Wilson, for a second consecutive day, posted a school-record time in the 4x400m relay with a mark of 3:22.14. Caldwell, Moore and Wilson — all seniors — and Campbell — a junior who was filling in for senior Joe Jenkins — surpassed Luke Watts as the last Blue Devil to score at the state level. Watts finished fifth in the pole vault in 2008, which earned four points. It was also the first time since the turn of the millennium that the Blue Devils outscored the Blue Angels at the state meet. The Blue Devils and Blue Angels both scored eight points in 2002, but that was as close as the boys program ever came since the 2000 campaign. It wasn’t a perfect day for the Blue Devils, as senior Matt Watts came up short in his podium quest in the 1600m run after placing 14th with a time of 4:40.32. Still, Watts had a memorable senior season — becoming what is believed to be the first Blue Devil to qualify for state in three different sports in the same school year. Watts also qualified for state in cross country and wrestling this year. The Blue Devils, with five points, tied for 45th place overall in Division II with Magnolia Sandy Valley, St. Clairsville, Ashland Crestview, Minford, Mansfield Ontario, Salem and Lewistown Indian Lake. Akron St. Vincent-St. Mary won the D-2 boys crown with 51 points, finishing seven points ahead of runner-up Dayton Dunbar (44). A total of 77 teams scored a point in the D-2 boys competition.

That one point, however, allowed the Angels to score at the state meet for at least the 15th straight year — according to GAHS coach Rick Howell. GAHS junior Peyton Adkins earned her first podium appearance in track after placing eighth overall in the 1600m run, posting a time of 5:13.09. Adkins, who has also placed on the podium in cross country, earned the lone Blue Angel point from the weekend. Junior Mckenna Warner was also a qualifier in that 1600m final, but finished 12th overall with a time of 5:23.00. River Valley senior Jessica Hager capped her great career in style on Saturday, placing eighth overall in the 300m hurdles event for a second consecutive season. Hager’s time of 45.17 seconds was a second faster than a year ago, but ultimately didn’t make a difference in final placement. Hager, for a second consecutive year, scored one point for the Lady Raiders at the state meet. Junior Katie Blodgett also competed at state for the Lady Raiders on Saturday, placing 16th overall in the 3200m run with a time of 12:31.27 in her first state final. �SPORTS Page A10 Tuesday, June 7, 2011 Bryan Walters/photos Eastern junior Tyler Cline stands beside the scoreboard that shows his place and distance in Friday’s Division III discus final at the 2011 OHSAA Track and Field Championships at Jesse Owens Memorial Stadium in Columbus, Ohio.

Comments from State BWALTERS@MYDAILYTRIBUNE.COM COLUMBUS, Ohio — Double the pleasure. Double the fun. One year after the Eastern boys track program earned its first-ever point at the state level, the Eagles went above and beyond shattering that mark this weekend at the 2011 Division III OHSAA Track and Field Championships held at Jesse Owens Memorial Stadium on the campus of the Ohio State University. The senior-junior duo of Kyle Connery and Tyler Cline came away with matching programbests, as each athlete placed fourth overall en route to scoring five points for the Eagles program. Those 10 points combined to set a new school mark at the state level, eclipsing the 1.5 points that Mike Johnson scored in the high jump event in 2010. Connery set a personal record in his 400m final on Saturday, running a time of 49.51 seconds. Cline captured fourth in the discus event on Friday with a heave of 154 feet, 10 inches. The Eagles tied with Mineral Ridge, Sherwood Fairview and New Middleton Springfield for 23rd place in Division III. McDonald (44) defeated Anna (34) for the D-3 boys crown and 73 teams scored at least one point at the championships. Sophomore Kody Wolfe became the first Southern track athlete to appear at state since the turn of the millennium on Saturday during the boys “Fourth place is fine with me, I ran my fastest time ever. I’ve always wanted to run a sub-50 (second) race and I did that today in my final appearance with Eastern. (Tyler) Cline and me both finished fourth, which is the highest that any Eagle has ever finished at state. We scored 10 points as a team, which is another school record. That’s a good way to go out.” — EHS senior Kyle Connery on the his historic day, as well as the Eastern boys program. “I came in thinking I was just going to throw and have fun with this trip, but I didn’t really think I was going to place. To finish that high at the state level is something I would have never expected, so it’s been quite an honor for me. Standing on that podium has got to be one of the best feelings that I have ever had in my life.” — EHS junior Tyler Cline on his surprising weekend. “I’ve been working for this for four years, so it definitely feels great to have finally made it to the state meet as an athlete. It was definitely a fitting end to what has been a great senior year for me. I was disappointed with the outcome of my race, but I really can’t be too upset in going against the state’s best. It’s still quite an accomplishment and I am just happy to have finally made it here.” Eastern senior Kyle Connery, middle, receives a congratulatory handshake after receiving the fourth-place medal in the 400m dash final Saturday during the Division III OHSAA Track and Field Championships at Jesse Owens Memorial Stadium in Columbus, Ohio. 3200m final in D-3. Wolfe, who made it to state this year in cross country, placed 11th overall with a time of 10:08.42. In girls Division III, Steubenville Central Catholic (41) edged Versailles (37) by four points to claim the 2011 team title. Eastern, the only local school with an entrant in the D-3 girls meet, did not score at the championships. Lady Eagle senior Emeri Connery, a regional qualifier in both cross country and girls basketball, made her state debut Saturday in the 800m final. Connery finished 13th overall with a time of 2:26.62, but joined twin brothers Kyle and Klint in qualifying at the state level for track and field. The Connery triplets also join the former Eastern duo of Michael and Becca Owen (2007) as siblings that qualified for state. Complete results of the 2011 Division III OHSAA Track and Field Championships are available on the web at www.baumspage.com — EHS senior Emeri Connery on finishing her illustrious career in her first state appearance. “Our family is really competitive, especially being a triplet. We play different sports, but we are all in track and it’s been a great blessing for all of us to make it here. We were all heartbroken for Klint when he didn’t make it back for a third time, but we were all very happy for Emeri for finally making it this year. Being here at Jesse Owens Stadium is something we will always have good memories of.” — EHS senior Kyle Connery, one of three triplets, on what state has meant to the family. “It’s been a good two days for Eastern track. It blows my mind that we scored 10 points at the state meet, but all of the hard work that these athletes have put in over the years paid off today. We had incredible years, both the boys and the girls, and today was a nice way for us to close out those seasons. It will be tough to replace the Connerys and our other seniors, but we have some underclassmen coming back that were already close to being here. We definitely want to keep this program headed in the direction that it’s going.” — Eastern coach Josh Fogle after the weekend enjoyed by his track programs at Jesse Owens Stadium. Fogle, in his eighth season, started the program from scratch in 2004. “I think I went out a little too fast and ran out of gas toward the end, but I finished where I was ranked going in … so maybe I did as well as I should have. It’s not what I wanted, but it was still a good day. It was a good experience and I am glad I got to make the trip. It would be real nice to get up there on that podium.” Southern’s Kody Wolfe, middle, runs during the 3200 meter revent on Saturday at Jesse Owens Memorial Stadium on the campus of Ohio State University in Columbus, Ohio. — Southern sophomore Kody Wolfe following the 3200m final on Saturday, his first trip to Jesse Owens Stadium as an athlete. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
